I have a VB6 App that runs as an NT service set to &quot;Automatic&quot;. The App is supposed to start as a tray icon. It does when I run the app manually. When it starts up as a service, before login, the icon is not there in the System Tray after login. The App is running though. How do I get the icon in the System Tray after login?<br />

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
